[NTLUG:Discuss] Accessing samba dir

[Randall Gibson]

If you really only need NFS, try reading the howto:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/NFS-HOWTO/index.html

Also read a nice tutorial done by LinuxJournal awhile back.
http://www2.linuxjournal.com/cgi-bin/frames.pl/index.html
Look for the system Administration section. The articles are "Tux knows its
nice to share."
